I got a phone call for an interview. When I got there, I told the person at the register I was there to interview. I waited there until the store manager came to greet me. The store manager and assistant manager interviewed me in the back.

I got hired 'cause I was a regular shopper and the manager really liked my vibe. I just went into the store one day, the manager recognized me, and I asked about a job. We did a quick chat, and I got the offer right away.
